A 60-year-old man was killed when three unidentified New
People's Army (NPA) rebels fired at a temporary patrol base at Barangay Alayao,
Capalonga, Camarines Norte Tuesday morning.
Capt. Mardjorie Paimela Panesa, 9th Infantry Division
spokesperson, said the incident, which took place at 9 a.m., lasted for five
minutes.
No one among the troops manning the base was hurt, but a
civilian identified as Mandy Retiro was hit by an apparent stray bullet and
died while undergoing treatment at the Capalonga Medicare
Hospital
The victim was a utility worker at the nearby Capalonga College
"The 9th ID condemns such acts by the New People’s Army
which just denote that the rebels do not care of the innocent civilians that
may be hit. They merely resort to criminal acts just to sow fear and
terror," Panesa said.
